The reformed Nine Inch Nails are not only touring. Yesterday, they suddenly announced a brand new album will be released later this year on sister project How to Destroy Angels’ label Columbia.

- I’ve been less than honest about what I’ve really been up to lately. For the last year I’ve been secretly working non-stop with Atticus Ross and Alan Moulder on a new, full-length Nine Inch Nails record, which I am happy to say is finished and frankly fucking great. This is the real impetus and motivation behind the decision to assemble a new band and tour again, Trent Reznor writes.
